Popular Music and Youth Culture by Andrew Bennett
This work covers the relationship between popular music and youth culture. Reviewing existing literature, it goes on to make illustrative use of studies of dance music, rap, bhangra and rock to examine how these musical styles become part of daily life in different urban settings.
'The book as a whole is well informed and neatly accomplished, amply fulfilling the three vital Cs of clarity, concision and coherenceMedia and cultural studies students, along with those from sociology, cultural geography and popular music studies, will find this a very welcome addition to the growing literature on music and the local.' - European Journal of Communication 'A balanced, thoughtful overview.' - Alan Burton, De Montfort University
